Question

the percentage of us deaths due to diabetes in that year is

Expert Solution
Step 1: Bayes probability

Let 

W : White who died,    B : Black who died,     A : Asian who died,        then it is given that

P(W) = 0.86,   P(B) = 0.12,   P(A) = 0.02

Let D : Persons who died due to diabetes,

P(D|W) = 0,028,  P(D|B) = 0.044,  P(D|A) = 0.035

Now P(D) = P(D intersection W right parenthesis plus P left parenthesis D intersection B right parenthesis plus P left parenthesis D intersection A right parenthesis

                = P(D|W) P(W) + P(D|B) P(B) +P(D|A) P(A)

               = 0.028*0.86 + 0.044*0.12 +0.035*0.02 = 0.03006

Pecentage of deaths due to diabetes in that year is 3.006%
